Schwegler 1MR birdhouse (green)[154_2]

£38.95

A perfectly styled nest box – can be fixed to house, patio or balcony walls!

Native garden birds such as tits, redstarts and sparrows have made our house walls, patios and balconies their home, where next door to their human neighbours they breed and raise their young.

]SCHWEGLER have now developed a new range of nest boxes. Not only will birds readily occupy them, they are also well styled and satisfy the necessary technical requirements. The interior shape is similar to that of a natural hollow, and a high rate of occupancy is the result. Special features such as airpermeable, natural woodconcrete that is resistant to woodpeckers, and a design that satisfies many of the species’ needs make up a popular
and permanent bird home that has a place directly outside the house. Inside, conditions are perfect for birds to raise their young, indeed for many decades to come!

Using the screw-hook supplied, fix the nest box to any wall of your choice.

Not only will it be an eye-catcher but it will fill your life with the sound of bird song! The birds that occupy this nestbox with its 32 mm entrance hole inhabit every garden. They include coal tits, blue tits, marsh tits, crested tits, redstarts, nuthatches, pied flycatchers, wrynecks, house and tree sparrows, and possibly even bats.

Installing the box: If you have a house or garden, then you can mount the box at eye level, which will give you an excellent view of activity the whole year round. You can also attach the box to the walls of upper floors or balconies.

This is equally recommended, as birds readily occupy the box here too.

Your choice of location is ultimately decided by the best access for cleaning.

Use a single hook to fix the centrally held nest box to an outer wall. We recommend that you use the hook and wall plug supplied. Songbirds build their own nests. You need not therefore provide any nesting material. You can however offer them suitable nesting material such as our well-proven SCHWEGLER nest depot.

Cleaning and checking the box: To clean the 1MR simply remove the front cover. Twist the fastener half a turn and pull the cover downwards and away from the box. This gives you perfect access to the entire breeding area and to the interior roof section. Simply scrape off or brush out old nesting material, and the job is done. Then replace the front cover and twist the fastener upwards by half a turn – finished. No cleaning agents are required.

This Bird Home gives you ideal access to the interior of the nest box and is a source of fascinating activity the whole year round. The 1MR lets everyone keen to help animals and nature contribute usefully towards protecting bird wildlife, even if they do not own a garden.
